In today’s digital era, all it really takes is imagination to create content. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, everyone’s eyes have now turned to the virtual world. This brought with it the rise of micro influencers and a now wider list of A1 celebrities thanks to social media apps like Instagram and TikTok. A young adult with a creative mind can find fame quickly, and all they need is just an iPhone.
Rising social media influencer Sem Graham is a perfect example of what can happen when an iPhone is used creatively. Originally starting out as a model, Sem began doing runway showings. She unexpectedly moved from Florida to Utah after an accident before Miami Swim week. When she arrived in Utah she found a lack of agencies that would be willing to pick up new models. So, she continued her journey with just her iPhone. “So, in Utah there aren’t many modeling agencies unless I was to move which I couldn’t because I had a little to no money and I was living in my car” said Sem. “But I had an iPhone with a camera and I knew I wanted to continue my path and social media was my way of doing so.”
Growing up in a financially unstable home has inspired Sem Graham to do the extraordinary. In her early 20s, Sem has built a following of almost 750 thousand people on Instagram alone. She already owns a house at a young age, and while it might not mean a lot to others, it means a lot to her. She boasts it as one of her greatest successes in life so far. By the age of 26 Sem hopes to have finished college and started her path towards a PHD. She is currently pursuing a degree in Psychology, and is an avid learner.
Sem Graham’s story is another perfect example of the power of social media. When harnessed correctly, online platforms can bring people together, open up new businesses opportunities, and grow careers.
